THE  BEST  PAINT  IN  THE  WORLD. 


Being  uiiattected  by  changes  of  temperature  and 
impervious  to  the  action  of  water,  is  well  adapted  to 
all  classes  of  inside  or  outside  work  either  upon  wood, 
brick,  iron,  or  plastering,  or  for  vessel  painting.  ' i 

We  have  sold  this  paint  with  more  general  satis-  i 
faction  than  any  goods  we  ever  offered,  never  having  | 
had  a single  complaint  of  it,  but  always  most  highly 
commended. 

We  refer  with  jileasure  to  some  of  the  largest  and 
most  prominent  buildings  in  this  city  and  elsewhere 
that  have  been  jiainted  with  it,  viz : 

McCKEKRY  BUILDING,  Corner  German  anr]  Sharp  Streets.

class  work,  onr  stock  in  this  line  is  selected  from

TN  presenting  these  designs  of  Embossed  and  Cut 
Glass,  we  would  remark  that  the  cost  of  this 
class  of  work  depends  entirely  upon  the  amount 
and  character  of  work  done,  which  it  is  impossible  to 
give  an  idea  of  in  a Lithograph. 

The  prices  given  are  for  the  finest  work  in  the  sev- 
eral lines,  done  by  the  very  best  workmen  and  in  the 
highest  style  of  the  art.  The  same  patterns  can  be 
produced  at  lower  figures  by  reducing  or  modifying 
the  amount  of  work,  so  that  if  parties  prefer  any  ])ar- 
ticular  pattern  at  lower  prices  we  can  make  them  to 
suit.
